Synopsis

Amazon.com
Reggae for Kids: Movie Classics takes the magic of Disney and ramps it up tenfold with 13 Disney movie themes and tunes from the studio's well-loved films--all set to five-star reggae interpretations. Some of these songs sound as if they were meant be recorded in the syncopated and lilting reggae form, especially Bunny Wailer's playful reprise of "Hakuna Matata," Don Carlos's splendidly rich "Zippity Do Dah," and J.C. Lodge's "Colors of the Wind." The latter tune is so inspired by Lodge's honey-coated vocal that the song's poignant lyrics translate well through the worlds of difference between European explorers and the Native Americans' honor of nature and spirit. Lodge's rendition ultimately communicates much of the myth embroidered in Jamaican music and religious beliefs. Like so many of Disney's deep and lyrical songs that create a place of timelessness where childhood never ends, these transported classics are effortlessly reborn--and rejuvenated--for any listener. Highly recommended. --Martin Keller
